recipe reviews for:

Cheery Cherry Crisp

“'I love the aroma and flavor of basil! So when I found a recipe that called for basil in a strawberry-rhubarb crisp, I couldn't wait to try it,' writes Beth Rice of Springfield, Oregon. 'I reduced the fat in the recipe and changed the strawberries to cherries since I had a tree loaded with them. The tart fruit flavor goes perfectly with the tangy basil.'”

This is so good! I didn't't have the fresh basil or rhubarb so just made it without and it was delicious. We have a cherry tree so this was great with ones we had to freeze.

This recipe is excellent. I love the flavor the basil adds. The first time I made it I used cherries and rhubarb. The second time I used plums and rhubarb. It came out a little runny, but it's either because I didn't have enough cornstarch, or because the plums need to be cooked a little to get out some of their juice. It was excellent also.

I did change acouple of things. Left out the rhubard and added about 1 t. almond extract to the cherries. Everthing else I did the same, it was very good. P.S. Its even better served warm, with vanilla ice cream.
